Although your website includes a huge variety of products, some of your products may be more popular than others and drive more traffic.
The popularity may be about your products’ attractive image, competitive price, increasing trend or just because you show just a few of your products in your ads. What you need is not only to control which product page you are investing in more and which one has more return.
Product Page View vs Product Landing Page View
When you are evaluating the performance of your products, you should take into consideration these two different types of product page visits; a product page that users view during the visit vs a product page that users directly landed on.
If you promote a category page like televisions in your ads, a user landed on a list and may view more than one product after they click your ads and land on your website. So you expect to increase the category revenue, not a specific product. However, if you promote a product and invest a part of your budget in the product, you should expect to sell this specific product :)
How do you find out the product you invest in?
Google Analytics is a powerful solution to collect all your product and page-level data. However, in order to analyze the performance of product landing pages, you need a digital data analyst who checks measurement accuracy, blends the data, automates it and creates a job on it to control each day and send you an alert if it finds unexpected changes on the report.
The process of manually analyzing these pages' performance isn’t an easy task, you can hire a full-time data analyst here or use heybooster insights to analyze your product performance continuously.
